BLAST is a 4-handed, Super-turbo Texas Hold’em Sit & Go. The prize pool of each BLAST Sit & Go is determined based on a draw that takes place at the beginning of each BLAST tournament and varies between two and 10,000 times the buy-in of the selected BLAST Sit & Go.

Once the tournament starts, the BLAST timer starts the countdown. When the BLAST timer runs out, all the remaining players are all-in until there’s a single winner. The blind structure and prize pool distribution of each BLAST Sit & Go is determined according to the multiplier that was assigned to the BLAST Sit & Go. The higher the multiplier, the longer the BLAST timer and the longer the BLAST Sit & Go plays until it reaches the all-in stage.
